Happy Election Day!

We totally Baracked the Vote.

This was my first time to vote on Election Day at an actual polling place.  Go me!  It was very exciting, but I was super disappointed to find out I didn’t get a curtain to stand behind.  Bummer.

Our polling place official told us in the last election, our district had 52 total voters.  At 8:30 a.m., I was the 180th person to turn in a ballot.  Sweet! 

We stood in line 45 minutes, can anyone top that? 

The first poll closes in 3 hours*, get out and vote! 

*As of writing this at 2 p.m. Central Standard Time.  Also, let’s pretend that is a shadow in the picture and not a horrible makeup line on my chin.  Yikes.

    yay for baracking the vote! I had to wait about 35 minutes and the two previous elections- no wait. People are out in record numbers voting and it moves me (I am loving it)

    I don’t know what you are talking about I don’t see any makeup line, you guys are so cute.

    Oh Jenna, I don’t even know how to respond to that. If Palin is on the ticket in 2012, that just means Obama will be re-elected. I guess I have four years to educate you.

    Hey if in 4 years “we are better off now then we were 4 years ago” (to quote the great Ronald Regan) then I will stand corrected.
